Quote: G1 "The San Francisco 49ers have won 5 Superbowls. However, four of them came before the NFL introduced a salary cap and the last came in 1995, the year after the cap was introduced.
At the time of the 49ers Superbowls the NFL was not the fiercely competitive league it is now. In fact, in the 10 years that preceded the NFLs salary cap the Superbowl was shared between the 49ers, Redskins, Giants and Cowboys. Most other teams were a Salford etc. It was 14 years between Superbowl wins from AFC teams.
Sor I agree with you, he shouldn't compare Leeds to the 49ers. Leeds acheivements in a salary capped sport are far, far greater than the 49ers acheivements were in an uncapped sport.'"
I'm sure the 49ers are in awe.
